nothing, just PhD's, and years of studying, research, teaching, etc. :p

Hey Prince using the education level of your professors to prove your point won't work because there are just as many scientists, PhD's, etc that believe the Bible to be true. It is just what you want to believe, and that is ok to believe what you want to believe.

The bottom line is we all have to believe in what we believe in, and some of us believe the Bible is true and some of us don't.
 
There are thousands of Scientists and PhDs in all fields that believe the Bible to be true.

We had a Scientist come to our church, well actually he has been there a number of times, that spent his entire life researching to prove the Bible to be false and just a pack of stories that had no basis in fact. He spent over 40 years doing this, and what he found out in over 40 years of research and study is that the Bible has not been proven incorrect in anything. He is now a Christian, and goes around from church to church sharing his life studies. He is on TV if you want to watch him, his name is Dr. Baugh. :thumb:
 
Based on what? Theories.

I know some people with phd's. Some of them have lots of smarts and some are just plain idiots with lots of credentials. PHD's in most cases only mean that you'll get hired faster than most.

depends where they got their PhD from, if it's from a reputable school then it's almost impossible that they're idiots.

just an example, to get into a top 100 school's doctrate program you typically need a 3.75 GPA in your master's degree, and you have to score high on the entrance exam.

you don't just say "hey I want a PhD" and go get it, unless you're getting it from some bogus online school.

a PhD means a hell of lot more than a credential on your resume, you obviously do not have much respect for higher education.
 
Not trying to discredit the time, effort, money that is involved in getting a phd, just saying people with phd's are still people. And like people, we are only as smart as our last teacher. Except for a few of us self thinkers..:D

where do you get this information?

btw, I would be leary of any religous speaker on TV.

That is hilarious, where did I get this information. Prince, he came to my church a number of times to speak. :laugh: :laugh:

Prince, no one will ever change your mind because you want to believe what you want to believe. You just have to come up with solid justifications in your own mind to substantiate why you believe it. If you feel that your reasons are solid and prove your point in your own mind that is great. I don't agree with them, and never will. :D

Oh, can you tell me one of those things that has been proven untrue, and it isn't creation, and it isn't the flood either.
 
actually, there is very little "teaching" involved with a PhD, it's more like "guidance".

Getting a PhD is primarily reading, research and writing papers.

Many Master's degrees are the same way, the one I am working on is.

And to be a full-time professor with tenure at a reputable university requires a master's and PhD from reputable schools.

Don't try to construe something I said into something you wanted me to say. I hate when people do that. :finger:

Read my last post.

I had a cousin that had a phd. He was deffinately book smart but had no common sense at all. He also killed himself... How smart was that?

I agree. Never send them your money. Or make the mistake of believing that all Christians are like them.

how about I reverse this and ask you what has been proven true?

as I said in a previous post, I do not think that the onus is on my shoulders (the non-believer) to prove the bible untrue.

The onus lies on the believer's shoulders to prove that it is.

killing yourself has nothing to do with intelligence.

did you know that medical doctors, who have 8+ years of higher education have one of the highest suicide rates of all professions?

One of the major problems I have with them trying to prove/disprove anything that involves carbon dating. How can a process be a million or 2 yrs off?

In favor of scientists: they have said that there was some sort of flood that caused the continental drift.

Yeah, I know. Crazy isnt it?

About a year ago my doc put his leg in a 5 gal bucket and slit his ankle and allowed himself to bleed to death.
 
PHD's and MD's are thoroughly overrated titles. Any asshole w/ a decent IQ or persistence could get one IMO. I said asshole b/c knowledge or percieveed knowledge does not directly correlate to wisdom or truth. You could study alchemy for decades and still be unable to produce gold from iron... or 8yrs of college and 3 degrees and still be wrong. JMHO and observation :)
 
No, herein lies the problem.

Non-believers want to discredit the Bible and prove it to be untrue to feel better about their beliefs. "I don't believe in the Bible because of this and that." They will even believe lies about the Bible because they want more than anything to believe the Bible is untrue.

Believers have faith that it is true, and that is what y'all don't want to hear is that you have to have faith.

The world has become a very scientific place, where everyone wants to see proof before they will believe.

I think that I have said my bit, and I think I will go the way of the corndog and bow out now. :)

Oh, and I respect everyone of you for being able to have your own beliefs. God Bless the USA, where is that darn flag. :D
 
A good ste of examples on this are my numerous run-ins w/ endocrinologists, physiologists, assorted grad-students and professors who didn't know their ass from a crater on Mars and of course there are exceptions... but I also know for a fact that a good % of profs are profs b/c there was no other job that they could get. LOL :D
 
Where I work we have hundreds of PhDs in all fields, they can't make up their minds on anything. You ask them to actually make a decision and they can't do it to save their life. :rolleyes:

I cannot believe you said that.

First of all you have to do well in your Bachelors to get accepted into a decent Master's program, and to get into a decent PhD program you have to do exceptional in your Masters.

As far a an Medical Degree, that takes more intestinal fortitude than what 90% of people even posses.

If it's so easy to get a PhD, or even a Master's degree, or hell even a Bachelors, why don't more people have them?

I am sickened at the lack of respect you guys have for education.
 
I graduated with a 3.83 GPA from the University of Texas in San Antonio with a BS in Computer Science and a minor in Mechanical Engineering. I had 219 semester hours when I graduated which is more than most PhDs have when they get done. Couldn't make up my mind just like cornpone. :D

My brother is a Pediatric Cardiologist and he isn't any smarter than I am, just took him longer to get there. :)
 
I respect education more than you think, but I think that a degree alone is a poor way of evaluating one's infallability or wisdom or insight. I just hate it when the education card is pulled and one's goals in life (ie: choice to pursue a career over lengthier education) are immediately disqualification for their insight. Education is great, but there are many educated fools on both sides. And intestinal fortitude/persistence/work ethic do not infer wisdom or any better logic. I'm not discrediting anyone or trying to insult anyone, I just believe that education alone is not valid grounds for others dismissal. Is that a better representation of my stance?

I just want to add that I respect PhDs a ton for their efforts, and the time put in, but I have found that schooling isd not the only form of education.
 
but all my schooling does not make me any better typer than a kid in primary using 2 fingers "isd" :D
